Truly DIY- I could ship you a chunk of copper and some plastic pellets, if you need it in a 'kit' form I could include IKEA-style instructions if you want?

How far down the rabbit hole do you want to go?

There's a whole range of DIY, from just swapping out keycaps, to designing, manufacturing, and hand-wiring from the ground up.

Are you saying you couldn't get the home folder to open? Or you couldn't locate the folder?

Isn't it just the in the shortcut pane, the username with the picture of a house? To you try to open the 'go' menu and select 'home'?

It'll also need AI.

I don't think I can tell the difference if something is only one degree apart in Celcius, let alone Fahrenheit.

Comparing an 18C day to a 19C day, for example, I challenge anyone to notice a difference. A 64F to 65F day? Good luck.

I agree with the Celsius scale making sense around zero. Water freezing is probably one of the most relatable, quantifiable examples of a temperature point for the most humans. However, lots of people don't live somewhere that it snows, or even own a freezer.

So what's the most common touch point for people? I'd go with water boiling. I can't really think of what sort of person who did not have exposure to that at some point. That should be the zero point, the common denominator.

It may or may not be a string.

I'm interested in your comment about perceptions, could you unpack that a little more?

Colour of Magic is the first Discworld, and one of Pratchett's first novels. He grew into his voice a lot more over the course of the next fifty-something novels.

Most of the strongest, most unique women I've read have been of Pratchett's creation. And not just heroes that happen to be described as female, but fully fleshed out women ranging from feminists who wish to support their husband to trans females pretending to be males dressing as women in order to fight the patriarchy.

If you're willing to give the Discworld another go, and I urge you to, there's a couple of reading order guides online. 'Guards, Guards!' is generally recommended as a good starting point, but I'd also suggest Wyrd Sisters, Mort, Going Postal, or if you really want to dive into the gender thing, Equal Rites or Monstrous Regiment.

The SD card reader has nothing to do with the serial port, so you're fine on that point.

I would just try and roll back to the bigtreetech firmware for the 1.3, even if it's for an older Marlin. Once thats working, build Marlin 2.1, updating the configuration to match the known working one.

Your purpose in life is now to supply power to the grid. At first it'll be great, you're celebrated as a neat way to keep the baseline juice coming as fossil fuels phase out. Then you're asked to stay back a few hours as there's a shortfall predicted, you oblige out of duty. Then one day you wake up in a drugged daze, strapped to a giant battery, your nutritional needs piped directly to your bloodstream as scientists ever so carefully cut you open to try and figure out how this works, because despite their best efforts to keep your wrecked body alive, one day you will die, and the utter reliance of the grid on your free energy will die with it, and with that kick off the downfall of humanity.

Not sure if you're trying to be funny, but in case someone thinks you are being serious_ Unbalanced tyres will not cause someone to lose control. They'll get a little vibration feedback through the steering wheel, which may even be felt by passengers.
